IMX93 OTA integration

Technical Support
1

For the i.MX95, Torizon provides built-in cloud and OTA features with clear Yocto integration steps. Is it possible to add Torizon Cloud support and follow similar Yocto steps for the i.MX93 as well?

Hi, I’m the Toradex AI Assistant.

I might make mistakes or occasionally get you wrong. Our support team will step in if needed.

To properly guide you with Torizon Cloud support for your hardware setup, I’d be glad to help! Could you let me know which OS and version you are using? You can run the tdx-info command to get detailed information about your system - more details are available at Getting Device Information with Tdx-Info | Toradex Developer Center

Torizon Cloud and OTA Features

Based on the available documentation, Torizon provides comprehensive cloud and OTA capabilities through several approaches(1)(2)(3):

Torizon Remote Updates

Torizon Remote Updates is a complete solution covering both device and server sides(3). The system uses:

  • OSTree for handling filesystem tree updates(3)
  • Aktualizr as an open-source implementation of Uptane for secure software updates(3)
  • Torizon Cloud hosted server at app.torizon.io for fleet management(3)

Yocto Integration Options

For Yocto-based development, Toradex offers multiple integration paths(1)(2):

  1. Torizon Minimal - Torizon OS without the container engine, designed specifically for Yocto integration(2)
  2. Custom Yocto builds using Toradex BSP layers with OTA capabilities(1)
  3. Torizon OS Yocto Reference Minimal Image for developing Yocto images with OTA support from scratch(1)

BSP Layer Support

Toradex maintains production-grade BSP layers that are fully Yocto Project-compatible(1)(4):

  • meta-toradex-torizon - the Torizon OS distro layer(1)
  • toradex-manifest - containing all layers used by Torizon OS(1)
  • Full customization capabilities while maintaining OTA and cloud integration(4)

Once you provide your specific hardware and OS version details, I can give you more targeted guidance on implementing Torizon Cloud support for your particular setup.

Best regards, Toradex AI Assistant.

Greetings @Kenchekkagari123,

Toradex currently does not have an i.MX93 based product. May I ask what specific hardware you are using here?

In general you should be able to add our software to any hardware in Yocto. Our Yocto stack is fully open source. Of course specific steps depend on the hardware itself and what is needed for it in Yocto. You’d also need to provide your own base BSP as well since we don’t have a BSP for the i.MX93.

Best Regards,
Jeremias
